Racing Prodigy ^TM

In May 2024 I was lucky enough to be selected to go on an all expenses paid trip to Atlanta Motorsports Park as part of Prodigy Week part 2.

Racing Prodigy’s mission is to make motorsports accessible to all talent and they are selecting drivers to enter into their inaugural Prodigy Racing League. Go check out Racing Prodigy’s website to find out more.

I entered into their online simarcing competition along with about 100,000 other hopefuls (Raceroom, iRacing or StreetKart) and managed to get myself noticed by their selection committee to be invited to their Prodigy Week.

The days consisted of fitness assessments with PitFit, autocross tests, skid pad training and of course on track action in a Radical SR1 concluding in a knockout 1 vs 1 competition.

The level of competition, professionalism and fairness from the racing prodigy staff, sponsors, Primal Racing and my competitors was incredibly impressive and I can’t thank everyone enough who was involved in putting this event together.

After all was said and done we came away the winner of the knockouts along with the fastest overall lap of the week despite being chucked into 3 different cars for each run.

It’s still crazy to me that this opportunity came around through sim racing and I encourage anyone who is in the position to compete in Racing Prodigy’s various competitions to do it. You never know where it might lead you.

I’m so excited to see what will come of this in the future and incredibly grateful to Racing Prodigy for putting such a fantastic event together.
